I'm not equating the games in any way, but when on Sept 18, 2006 the Dodgers, losing by four runs, hit 4 straight solo shots to tie the game in the bottom of the 9th. Including 2 off "Dodger Killer" Trevor Hoffman, then won it on a walkoff HR in the 10th. The the 55,000+ still in attendance (I know my wife missed all the fun when she headed to the car in the middle of the 9th) when pretty f'n crazy, and it sure was fun for me to note all of those homers on my scorecard.
